After negotiating the acquisition of "The Quibbler," Levin stayed at the Tower for nearly a week.

During this time, Luna would visit every day and learn the skills of the psion from Levin.

But Levin always felt that the other party seemed to be more interested in him.

The girl was very clever and did not call Levin "boyfriend" openly in front of others, thus avoiding being targeted by powerful competitors.

A week later, the Christmas holiday was completely over, and Jaina and others left the tower.

Levin and Cirilla also returned to Hogwarts.

After receiving Dumbledore's promise, the Hogwarts library once again resumed its attraction to Levin.

Although it was just his first day at school, Levin went to the library after dinner as usual.

Since school had just started, the library was relatively deserted, with only a few people in the huge space.

In this case, the screenwriter saw Hermione Granger who was buried under the tall pile of books at a glance.

From a distance, Hermione's hair was disheveled due to lack of maintenance for a long time, like a fluffy cat with its head rubbing against the pile of books.

Levin thought of Hermione's appearance as a cat girl again, couldn't help but smile, and walked straight to the girl's side.

"Are you still busy at this time?" Levin asked with concern.

"Levin, you're here!" Hermione looked up and saw that it was Levin, with a surprised expression on her face.

Seeing Hermione at this time, Levin suddenly felt distressed.

At this time, her face was pale and haggard, her eyes were red and swollen, and her eyes were bloodshot. She had obviously cried bitterly after a long period of exertion.

Levin immediately pulled Hermione up and pulled her out.

"What are you doing!" Hermione said angrily, "I still have work to do!"

But Levin was even angrier than her: "Are you still thinking about work at this time? Do you want to die suddenly in the library?"

His stern tone made the girl frightened, but she still couldn't help but said weakly: "But my book..."

"Just borrow them all."

As he spoke, Levin waved his right hand, and the wand immediately flew into his hand. The books on Hermione's desk suddenly floated up, lining up behind the two of them.

"Didn't you have a good rest during the holiday?" Levin said as he walked, "I clearly remember that all the homework was completed before the holiday!"

As he spoke, his eyes swept over the long queue of books behind him.

"Prohibition of Animal Culture Testing Order", "Prohibited Trade Items", "Intricate Lappa Potter Law"...

Thinking of the girl's wrong Christmas gift, Levin spoke up about her job: "You want to help Hagrid win the lawsuit against the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Animals?"

Hermione's eyes showed surprise: "How did you guess it? It obviously happened during the holidays...but you are right, I want to help Hagrid so that he can successfully defend Buckbeak."

Sure enough, this is something only Hermione can do.

If you think about it carefully, Hermione is indeed a great witch,

Although she also has various shortcomings, such as being dictatorial when facing people who are not as smart as her,

For example, if you are not good at dealing with emergencies,

Like being as proud as a Gryffindor,

But her intelligence is unlike most Ravenclaws.

Although they both have an intelligent and studious side, Ravenclaw can sometimes appear to be too selfish and indifferent, and often likes to ignore things that have nothing to do with himself and be too grouped around when things happen.

Hermione has always been kind-hearted and powerful.

As long as she is sure that she is doing the right thing, she will take action and do her best to do it - just like now, after hearing that Hagrid's hippogriff was policed, she Started to prepare a defense statement for Hagrid alone.

Only such people can successfully be promoted to Minister of Magic more than ten years later.

"What about Harry and Ronald? What did they do?" Levin asked.

Hermione is not the only friend Hagrid has, Harry and Ronald should be just as good friends with him.

Then he saw the girl's eyes were red again.

Hermione didn't have many friends in Gryffindor to begin with. Her roommates only had a mediocre relationship with her, and the only good one, Ginny, wasn't in the same year.

Harry and Ronald are left. Ronald's conflict with her has become more and more serious this semester, not only because of the pet conflict, but also because of his relationship with Levin;

As for Harry, she had a conflict with her recently about gifts.

Specifically, Harry received an anonymous gift of a Firebolt. Professor McGonagall suspected that there might be a curse inside and wanted to open it for inspection.

With Hermione's character, she naturally agreed with such caution, and then she and Harry got into an argument.

Harry felt that she was unnecessary, and even suspected that Hermione was afraid that he also had the Firebolt, which would threaten Raven's dominant position in Quidditch.

This left her completely isolated during the holiday, and she had to fight alone to help Hagrid.

Now feeling Levin's warm hands and seeing the boy's caring eyes, the last strength and stubbornness she had maintained were all gone.

"Uuuuuu——"

The girl cried in Levin's arms and confided intermittently everything that had happened recently.

"Oh, you want to beat me on the court with a Firebolt... Harry is really imaginative."

After sighing, Levin looked at Hermione again,

"Look, what did I say before? Gryffindor friendship is so fragile, isn't it?"

As he spoke, he stroked the girl's head and said comfortingly:

"Hermione, you don't need to blame yourself or feel sad, because in my opinion, you did nothing wrong. You just put forward reasonable opinions for the sake of your friends, and you just stick to what you think is right.

"And your help to Hagrid, what you did is more worthy of being called a friend than Harry and Ronald."

After hearing Levin's words, the girl finally burst into laughter.

"Levin, I'm just trying my best, but until now, I still don't have a clue." Hermione wiped the corners of her eyes and said with some embarrassment.

"Well, Hermione, I was wondering if you would be willing to listen to my idea?" Levin thought for a while and asked tentatively.

Because what he wants to say may not sound good,

After all, Hermione had been busy with Hagrid's affairs throughout the holiday, but some truths might make her feel that her hard work was completely meaningless.

"Of course, Levin, you know, I always value your opinion." Hermione looked at the boy in front of her, her eyes shining. This was the only peer she admired.

Of course, this is because being with Levin is always so relaxed and happy, which is completely different from the feeling when being with Harry and Ronald.

"She was always helpful when dealing with the latter - and the two of them were always particularly impatient with her.

But around Levin, she was always the one who received help, which gave this independent girl a rare sense of security that she could rely on others.

This is the real reason why she always prefers Levin in her friendship with the three of them.

Seeing that Hermione was in a good mood, Levin thought for a while and decided to tell his true evaluation: "Actually, I personally think that it is quite unwise for you to spend so much energy on helping Hagrid write a defense statement. It is just a matter of exploiting your strengths and avoiding weaknesses. .”

Levin's first words made Hermione frown, but she restrained her desire to argue and still listened carefully.

She has always been willing to believe Levin's words.

Then, Levin gave an explanation: “First, you are just a little witch learning magic now. You may be better than some adult wizards in spells, but you are not proficient in laws and regulations. It is quite difficult for you to rely on your own improvisation and challenge others' years of study and industry accumulation."

Levin looked at Hermione's expression and found that she nodded in agreement, so he continued:

"Second, even if you rely on your genius mind, spend a lot of energy to understand these systems and cases, and write a wonderful defense - I believe you can do it with your genius. ——But you can only control yourself, not Hagrid. "

With that said, Levin spread his hands: "We all know Hagrid. With his impulsive character, no matter how well your defense is written, he will not be able to fully display it - you can't replace him.

Hermione thought carefully about Levin's words. Although they didn't sound good, the truth behind them was irrefutable.

"So, if you are busy like this, apart from destroying yourself, there is no guarantee that you will win the defense." Levin came to a cruel conclusion. .

"Then what can I do? Besides, I don't know how to help him." Hermione's eyes turned red again, "She just wants to do her best to help her friends.

Levin patted her shoulder: "Actually, you have done a good job, at least much better than Harry and Ronald. Hagrid will be very happy to have a friend like you."

"But that still doesn't make sense, does it?" Hermione said, biting her lip.

Apart from checking information and writing a defense draft, she didn't know what else she could do.

Then, she looked at the boy she admired in front of her with watery eyes: "Levin, you are much smarter than me. What would you do if you were me?"

"Oh, that's easy," Levin shrugged. "I'll spend a lot of money to hire the best defense lawyer for Hagrid."

"This is indeed a good idea," Hermione smiled bitterly, "but it is indeed an idea that only you can do. After all, I am better off. Even Hagrid doesn't have the money.

"But there are things here that only you can do." Levin shook his finger and said mysteriously.

"Oh, what is that?" Hermione asked curiously.

"Of course... you asked me for help." Levin grabbed the girl's shoulders sincerely, "You have to remember that no matter what problem you encounter, you still have me as your friend, right? "

As he spoke, he patted his chest proudly:

"You still have me, the genius of Ravenclaw, a dragon-slaying warrior, a first-class medalist of the Order of Merlin, and the president of the Erudite Society as your backing. When you encounter a problem that you can't solve on your own, you don't need to bear it all by yourself. You can ask me for help.”

The girl was deeply moved by Levin's words: "Thank you, thank you Levin, you are so good to me.

As he spoke, he hugged him tightly.

Levin accepted the girl's hug calmly, and then said: "As for this matter, I am willing to fund Hagrid and hire an attorney. At the same time, I will also tell my friend in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures and let her take action on this case. Influence."

"Oh, Levin, you are so kind. By the way, I also have some Galleons here, although not much, but..."

Speaking of this, Hermione was still a little embarrassed. She knew that her few gold galleons were useless in front of a barrister who paid by the hour.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you do your best." Levin did not refuse her kindness.

After all, she would feel better if she had a sense of participation.
